Seth,
Is there a particular reason why you can't, or won't, address your problem or question in the 1st post?
If for some reason you can't, we understand.
If it's just that you don't want to, it's very irritating....just so you know.

Not trying to be mean; just curious.

I'm with you on that.
Pose a question in the first post like most normal people do.

Gee, Superman. Big surprise. Not! I am gonna go lay in a dark room now. It has begun.

Pepper just hatched and its leg is kinda wrapped up in the cord. Will it be okay?

So glad you were able to have that done! Three different types of worms, no wonder she has a poopy butt! As for the drug chosen, it's what I would use, except I would use the liquid. Not sure 1/2 a pound of the pellets have enough medication, but I'm not one to contradict your vet's instructions . I'll look it up and see how many mg Fenbendazole are in 1/2 pound of the pellets. Since it's only $15, I strongly suggest that you do a follow up fecal.

I asked if there was a liquid I could put into their water; she said no. If you're referring to a liquid given to individual birds via syringe or eye dropper, I'd be afraid of getting it "down the wrong pipe" (is that aspiration?)

I am referring to the liquid that's given orally, and the vet is correct, it's not water soluble, so shouldn't be used that way, though you could use by mixing an amount in water, then use that water to make a mash for them. There is a water soluble product called "Worm Out Gel", but you would have to order it. It's in the same family as Safeguard, plus it has praziquantel, so it will treat all worms. Maybe something to consider in the future.

If you ever want to learn how to give meds orally I'd be more that happy to help you learn.

Yes, I understand the difference between off label and banned for use. What I don't understand is why Vet told Whites theFDA says eggs from the chickens can't be eaten, they are now unnamed pets? The only reason I could think of is the off label use.

I called them "unnamed pets" because I can't tell the difference between them

They're all RSL; they all look pretty much alike.
Maybe I should just take a page out of George Foreman's book and call them all "George", or "Georgina", in deference to their gender. I just may do that!

@Sally Sunshine My eggs have more CAM problems..... I'm going to build a new turner, or switch to manual turning or something.....

I did find this neat article you may be interested in though as to WHY eggs that don't develop a CAM that reaches the bottom of the egg don't do well.
